Thanks Torriem. I have some ESP8266's I will try and adapt your code, if that doesn't work I'll order the Teensy board.

Thanks Torriem. I have some ESP8266's I will try and adapt your code, if that doesn't work I'll order the Teensy board. Might work with a couple of SPI to CAN adapters. ESP8266 probably has enough horsepower to do it. Let me know how it goes. Feel free to fork the github repo. I'd love to see your ESP8266 or ESP 32 version.

Torriem, do you have the link for AOG on the swather? I honestly haven't been following the new developments lately.

Got our ITC Extend hooked up yesterday. Seemed to steer good up to 10mph. For the harrow and the bit of roller use it should be fine. I had to re-pin the one connector for our ITC but instructions on the web were easy to do.

You getting a real WAAS signal, or is it still degraded to 3D+? The last two days I've got WAAS on my receiver.

I’m pretty sure it was waas on it before we hooked up the box. It says it’s sf1 on the screen I think. My brother was the one driving it.

Yeah you would have to go into the Starfire information screen to see what it's really getting. I may try to do some land rolling with my own version of it myself and see how it works. I do have a 3000 for it, but it's being flaky and might need to go in for repairs.

I use an older 262 receiver running on waas in the sprayer for spring burn off and then later change to a 372 with Centerpoint GTX from my seeder tractor for in crop spraying. Saved having to carry the receiver back and forth and worked good enough for burnoff. But this year about first week of May I get to the field and no gps signal from the 262. Called our local dealership guru who confirmed the 262 will no longer work with waas. He said that the odd one can still be upgraded with the latest software and be brought back to life. Has anyone else had this experience? I have several of the older 262s all of which I had paid an unlock fee so do I get my money back now? Plus I discovered a few years ago that an ezee steer that I still use in a swather works great when being used with the original 251 that it was set up with. It would only work half assed with the 262s or 371 but was performing quite well with the oldest 251 running on waas. So is the ezee steer now garbage along with the 262s?

Hey guys, just wondering how many guys had success with waas during seeding or spraying. Also have you run into difficulty getting a new 6000 receiver and how much are they going for now. Is the 4640 john deere monitor easily available now. I lent my 4640 out to my local dealer because they couldnt get any in the spring. Surely Deere should be catching up by now. Is other companies having trouble supplying new gps equipment.

The last time I talked to the JD dealer about the receivers was in April and at that time they were saying August was when they were expecting more of the 6000 to be available and the reason being those with the ITC didn't all upgrade until the crunch came this spring, yet JD saw it coming for a long time and didn't seem to have done well enough themselves in creating enough of a supply. I would be calling your dealer right away if you need one and see what the status is and get your name on one so hopefully you will have it by the time you need it. Not sure about the monitors as they were not affected exactly although the older brown box monitor is a has been unit and not sure if they function anymore or not. Or maybe its time to switch to a different brand GPS system to avoid the yearly subscriptions that JD has for any of the new setups.

We spray on waas with raven with no trouble. Not perfect but pretty good.

I use a Trimble 250 on airseeder and sprayer and both work pretty good, especially the one on the 4 wheel drive.
